I got these after discovering that the gfi was tripped on the outlet a fridge in my garage is plugged into and I didn’t notice until it had completely warmed up and I had to throw away almost everything in it. The sensors are working great but it’s hard to set the narrow temperature range that’s needed for a fridge. I initially downloaded the app on my phone then added it to my iPad hoping it would be easier to set but it isn’t much bigger. I had to move the top temp up just to be able to grab the lower one but still struggled to get it precisely where I wanted both the high and low. I finally figured out that rocking my finger slightly was the best way to fine tune the temp setting but it’s still difficult, and my fingers are pretty normal woman sized. Maybe I got the wrong type of sensor but I don’t know if there’s one that has a smaller range that would make the controls easier to work. The ones I got said they were good for freezers and refrigerators. A bigger, wider control would definitely be helpful.

This is a great system for tracking various home items. I have a couple leak detectors and a power failure on my freezer and some temperature and humidity. I have an iPad mini and would love to have this in the dashboard i have set up. Sadly there is no iPad app. Please work on that. Also some widgets so i can see the humidity on my home screen without opening the app. Needs more information display on more devices, please

We had a water filter under a sink get detached and flood our upstairs bathroom. Despite it being late at night the alarm on the unit went off (and the app notified us, but our phones were on silent) and we were able to shut the water off within a ten minutes of the leak. This water detector’s beeping allowed us to stop it before it became much worse! We would have slept through the night and the water leak would have causes massive damage. 10/10
